Joining the executive team
Based in San Francisco, Gould becomes a senior member of EncompaaS's executive team, led by Australian-based founder and chief executive officer, Jesse Todd.
With them, he is responsible for realising the company's global vision to automatically manage enterprise content, applying rules and policies behind the scenes, so users can use whatever application is best suited to their roles.
As chief customer officer, Gould will work closely with EncompaaS clients to help them accelerate digital transformation for compliance, privacy and team productivity.

"Now I have the opportunity to be on the inside and help lead a very dynamic team with a true passion for great customer outcomes.
